Foods the Feed Your Desire

Eat your way to a better sex life? Maybe.

1. Eggs: crambled, poached, or hard-boiled, eggs are a good source of B vitamins, a key nutrient for keeping your sex drive roaring and your mind stress-free.

2. Celery: Every stalk of the stuff is packed with androstenone and androstenol, two pheromones that can help men attract women.

3. Vanilla ice cream (yummy): When it comes to sex, ice cream is endurance food. It has high levels of calcium and phosphorus, two minerals that build your muscles' energy reserves and boost your libido.

4. Breakfast cereal: Too tired for sex? Check the label on your morning cereal and make sure you're eating a brand loaded with thiamin and riboflavin.

5. Steak: Visit your favorite steak house and chow down on some lean sirloin. The protein in the meat will naturally boost levels of dopamine and norepinephrine, two chemicals in the brain that heighten sensitivity during sex.
